"You're not going to die Shu, don't worry." Rather than Takeshi's voice chiming in it was Eslaria's. The Queen stood at the doorway to the room for a moment, looking at the two brothers in pity. Why these two had been put together was beyond her, as clearly it was a bad idea. Takeshi was too guilty and upset to do anything other than mope and Shu simply couldn't handle that right now, it was a recipe for disaster. "To put it simply you were injured little one, a blow to the head by the looks of it. You're going to live, but you have to relax and rest." That meant no older brother having a breakdown in front of him. Her head shook in disbelief before she walked over to the boys, kneeling down at the older boy's side and smiling gently. "No one thinks you're at fault for this but you. Shouldn't that tell you something?" she asked, cocking her head questioningly. "Shu has to rest for now, and so do you. So I'm going to take you to your room..." There was a pause as she linked her arms under the Saiyan, scooping him up as Yumi had with relative ease. "And Shu will remain here. He'll have plenty of visitors, so don't you worry about a thing. Right now everyone has to get their strength back." It came across as gentle, but it wasn't up for discussion. Fretting like this would only serve to agitate everyone and make matters worse. Besides, they couldn't quite get on with taking down the general if they had to worry about these three at home. 

Emotionally strained and just physically tired Takeshi put up little fight in being lifted up again. He was still crying, albeit to a far lesser degree than before, mostly out of pride before the Queen. Before they left the room he cast a glance back over to his brother, sniffling before managing a small smile. "I'm s-sorry... You're going to be okay..." It was a weak attempt to quickly reassure the boy but hopefully it did a little something at least. Taken out of the room they went down the hallway, and to his chagrin passed by the room where his old squadmates were sitting, hiding his face and hoping they didn't notice him. The walk to his and Shu's room was a mercifully short one, and once on the bed a bit of his pain was instantly eased. "Thank you... For bringing me here..." he mumbled, embarrassed at his inability to move on his own. Reaching at a pillow he carefully propped it up under his head, laying it back graciously and closing his eyes. Eslaria left not too long after, apparently just lingering to make sure the breakdown was over. Blinking away a few tears that clung to his lashes Takeshi lifted a hand to rub his face dry, staring up at the ceiling. He'd appreciated what the Queen said, but it was still hard to find it true. Even though Yumi had acted kindly towards him he imagined it was simply because it was for Shu's sake, and on his own he'd have been let be. Just as well, he didn't want to be seen groveling like a baby.

Eslaria made it a point to close Takeshi's door as she left, trying to afford him as much privacy as he might want. Even a tempered warrior like her could feel sympathy for the boy. It was never easy to see someone close be injured in a fight, least of all a family member. Remorse was a mistress she was rather familiar with, being a ruler in the time of war. Somehow she suspected that the general didn't share those sympathies and was perfectly fine with sending his men to their deaths. In fact she'd be surprised if he even acknowledged their deaths with anything more than disappointment or anger. That man had to be brought down, now. With the aliens out of it for the time being and their friends likely reluctant to leave they were shorthanded on fighters to help them. But wait... There were more fighters available to her, the ones who T'charrl were supposed to be helping. In a way they were then indebted to the prince, and always one to collect debts Eslaria smiled mischievously, knowing exactly where she'd find her extra help. Stopping right at their room she barged on in, putting her hands on her hips. "You three!" she bellowed, grabbing their attention. "I've got a job for you!"

Kabocha, Kai and Choi had been chattering amongst themselves when the Queen decided to come in on them. She had done so abruptly and shouted loud enough to make Kabocha nearly jump out of his seat, blinking in confusion before looking at Eslaria. "Wha...? A job?" he mimicked, frowning before settling himself down. "Why do we have to work now? Isn't everything taken care of?"

"No, everything is not taken care of. The general still needs to be apprehended, and your friends are currently unable to do that." Eslaria stated, folding her arms before smiling. "And that is why you three along with my son will be going to get him." Three Saiyans were certainly more than enough to deal with that man, and any troops he might have at his side. Without the element of surprise or an ambush they certainly had the upper hand, and with any degree of luck the general would be wise enough to surrender on the spot. When one of the boys looked to have issue with her plan she narrowed her eyes, clearing her throat before he could even speak. "May I remind you that my son is saving your families? The very least you can do is help us finish this mess of ours."

"Ugh... All right, all right." Kabocha relented, sighing as he rubbed his forehead. He looked between the twins to see if they agreed, and once he was assured they were he turned back to the Queen. "Just tell us where he is and we'll grab him for you. Are you sure you don't want us to just kill him...?"

Eslaria gave Kabocha an incredulous look before smacking her own forehead, groaning inwardly. What a... Saiyan thing to ask. "No... Because killing him would make a martyr out of him. And the last thing we need is to give even more reason for the forthcoming resistance to hate us. I want him brought here in one piece to be sentenced properly. And I'll be entrusting the command of this mission to my son, as he's more knowledgeable on the area and situation. I hope my faith in the two brothers isn't betrayed by any blunders you might make. I cannot stress how important this is, it has to be done right." In another brief pause she turned to look at the three boys, mulling something over in her thoughts before finally walking over and grabbing Choi by his shirt. "You, go get T'charrl, tell him what you're doing. I'm going outside to see how things are going."
